As we end the year, this week we are looking back on the Lifeline year. We have learned a lot about what it means to build our faith on a firm foundation. We will be discussing the Parable of the sower to discover what kind of soil represents our faith lives. If we are going to proclaim Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, how can we make sure our faith withstands trials and yields fruit? There will be an open mic time for students to share.

This week we continue our final series of the school year, How to Save the World by getting practical about sharing our faith. Many of us assume the people around us have heard about Jesus, but the truth is, unless someone tells them, they may never really know. We’ll discuss the two big reasons we don’t share our faith: fear of rejection and feeling unprepared. The good news? We already have what we need—our own story of what Jesus has done for us. We’ll end tonight by practicing how to share that story clearly and confidently.

We’ve arrived at our last series of the school year! During this two-week series, we are going to explore what it looks like to bring the hope of Jesus to the world. For our first teaching, we get to hear from the Ada Bible Young Adults director, Sam Schubkegel. What does knowing Jesus look like? It’s like waking up from a dream and realizing real life just started. Once you're awake, you're appointed to wake up others so that we can love and enjoy God together forever.

Lead intentionally making sure that your group is locking in to listen to the stories of transformation and cheering loudly when those students come up out of the water!

How do you grow as a follower of Jesus? How can I prioritize God instead of worldly things? How can I overcome temptation in my life? These are among the many questions that were asked when we surveyed students in January. During this series, we are going to get practical by showing students how their faithful pursuit of Jesus day by day can put them in position to live the life God has called them to live. This week, we will be talking about the fact that being faithful to the work God has called you to each and every day will end up making a lasting impact for His Kingdom.

It’s one on one night! This is a night dedicated to students’ leaders taking a few minutes to connect, share, and pray together. During this night, students will have the opportunity to share a bit of what’s going on in their lives and the leader will listen, ask questions, and pray for them! The rest of the night is dedicated to hanging out with the greater HS Lifeline community at their campus.

Tonight we are going to walk through the perspective of Jairus’ story. We are going to ask ourselves questions that he faced, that we may face today. We are going to learn that though the world draws us to doubt God, God gives us the command to not be afraid just believe.

As we begin our series addressing some of the big doubts and questions submitted by our students, we will explore five foundational truths to build on when processing this question: Is this even real? Whether students are skeptical or just looking for more solid footing, walking through scripture will lead each of us to a place where we are invited to trust more deeply in Jesus.

As we’re getting into 2025, we’ve been taking some time to consider who we want to be in the new year. This week, we will have a conversation about applying our beliefs to our everyday lives. King Solomon is said to the wisest person to ever live, yet his wisdom did not result in faithfulness to God; why is this? Because he didn’t apply the wisdom of God to his life. As we close the page in the first month of the year, a question we must ask ourselves is… Does the wisdom of God actually direct my life?

This week is a unique night of Lifeline. All of our small groups are taking the time we would normally be at our building to gather together at their own location and enjoy some time together as a group. So, students and volunteers will not be gathering at our campuses this Sunday! Students are encouraged to reach out to their leaders with any questions.
